And don't forget guys, if you do have a loaded rifle in your vehicle during hunting season...yes you do have to repeat hunters ed!  And for those of you who are grandfathered into this, you still have to take hunters ed and will be unable to purchase a license until the course is completed.  I had a father and son (18ish yrs) who were both taking hunter ed in a class that I popped in on the other day.  Neither of them were very happy about it.

It is legal to carry a concealed pistol if you are engaged in outdoor recreational activity and are otherwise legal (21 years of age, not convicted felon, etc.)  The issue becomes grey when it is not clear that you are engaged in outdoor recreational activity.  For example, you' re driving from one hunting location to another and are stopped for some reason. Were you really recreating or not?  A CWP eliminates that and allows you to carry concealed at any time.
Nature. It's cheaper than therapy.

Going back to the spotlighting.  one thing they can get you for even if you are going by the books (no gun ect.  ) is spotlighting from a moving vehicle.  You must step out of vehicle and shine ;).  My fiancee is taking hunters ed right now im going with her tonight just to get a refresher it cant hurt.

I'd sure like to see where that is written into the law.  Shooting from a vehicle is one thing, shining a light from a vehicle altogether different. I doubt if it's against the law, but if you have a reference to it, I'd love to see it.

You can spotlight from a moving vehicle you just have to get out to shoot obviously.

I don't feel a need to carry a loaded handgun with me all the time so that's why I say it's not worth it for me. I only want to have a handgun on me when I'm in the woods, so I'm ok without having the permit. Any other time I'll just keep it unloaded.

Yeah. At the cost of $1.00 a month, a CPW is worth spending the buck on.

If modern firearm deer or elk season is going, you CANNOT have ANY weapon in the car spotlighting. no questions asked. Perfectly legal to spotlight all year with no weapon in the car
